the_o air_n abroad_o be_v much_o heat_v at_o that_o time_n of_o the_o year_n which_o be_v in_o that_o season_n or_o at_o least_o very_a near_o it_o that_o be_v wont_a to_o be_v call_v the_o dogg-day_n

may_v also_o easy_o observe_v that_o that_o inferior_a air_n be_v caeteris_fw-la paribus_fw-la wont_a to_o be_v much_o less_o refrigerated_a by_o the_o grand_a efficient_n of_o intense_a cold_a than_o

very_o deep_a beneath_o the_o surface_n of_o the_o direct_o incumbent_a ground_n and_o perhaps_o from_o a_o soil_n peculiar_o fit_v to_o warm_v they_o whence_o the_o water_n may_v have_v derive_v a_o warmth_n considerable_a enough_o not_o to_o be_v quite_o lose_v till_o it_o begin_v to_o spring_v out_o of_o the_o ground_n where_o it_o need_v only_a not_o to_o be_v quite_o cold_a to_o appear_v to_o

which_o appear_v like_o a_o smoke_n in_o such_o weather_n though_o it_o be_v not_o visible_a in_o summer_n that_o therefore_o which_o i_o shall_v propose_v in_o favour_n of_o our_o observation_n be_v first_o take_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o may_v persuade_v we_o that_o the_o subterraneal_a air_n be_v though_o comparative_o cool_v yet_o indeed_o moderate_o warm_a in_o

thick_a arch_n of_o earth_n if_o i_o may_v so_o call_v it_o defend_v and_o that_o the_o cold_a reign_v most_o in_o the_o free_a air_n and_o the_o superficial_a part_n of_o the_o terrestrial_a globe_n may_v appear_v by_o water_n beginning_n to_o freeze_v at_o the_o top_n not_o at_o the_o bottom_n to_o which_o reason_n from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n i_o shall_v add_v only_o this_o from_o

a_o roof_n and_o that_o not_o only_o here_o in_o england_n where_o the_o cold_a be_v less_o violent_a but_o even_o in_o russia_n itself_o where_o it_o be_v wont_a to_o be_v so_o extreme_a it_o reach_v not_o near_o so_o deep_a as_o one_o will_v think_v i_o learn_v by_o inquiry_n purposely_o make_v of_o a_o ingenious_a physician_n that_o live_v at_o moscow_n who_o answer_v i_o that_o other_o and_o

deep_a but_o well_o cover_v above_o and_o careful_o line_v with_o plank_n of_o fir_n without_o any_o entrance_n but_o a_o small_a trap-door_n common_o at_o the_o top_n which_o be_v fit_v so_o exact_o to_o the_o orifice_n it_o be_v to_o close_v as_o to_o exclude_v as_o much_o as_o be_v possible_a all_o communication_n between_o the_o internal_a and_o external_a air_n that_o the_o latter_a may_v not_o affect_v the_o former_a with_o its_o coldness_n i_o have_v indeed_o suspect_v that_o in_o some_o cellar_n the_o comparative_a warmth_n we_o find_v there_o may_v be_v partly_o due_a to_o

have_v their_o body_n affect_v with_o the_o external_a air_n be_v very_o sensible_o warm_a and_o be_v almost_o unfit_a for_o respiration_n which_o circumstance_n increase_v my_o suspicion_n that_o

beneath_o it_o who_o temperature_n i_o can_v so_o convenient_o give_v a_o account_n of_o in_o less_o than_o two_o proposition_n whereof_o the_o first_o be_v this_o proposition_n the_o first_o the_o

partly_o by_o experience_n and_o first_o it_o seem_v consonant_a to_o reason_n that_o since_o
the_o earth_n be_v natural_o a_o body_n consist_v of_o gross_a and_o heavy_a part_n that_o be_v usual_o much_o less_o agitate_a than_o those_o of_o our_o organ_n of_o feel_v it_o shall_v as_o to_o

that_o seem_v of_o all_o other_o the_o most_o likely_a to_o put_v its_o part_n into_o a_o unusual_a motion_n and_o thereby_o change_v its_o natural_a temper_n that_o our_o proposition_n be_v also_o confirmable_a by_o experience_n may_v be_v gather_v from_o the_o relation_n set_v down_o in_o the_o former_a part_n of_o this_o discourse_n and_o here_o it_o will_v be_v proper_a to_o take_v notice_n of_o the_o advertisement_n intimate_v in_o the_o close_a of_o our_o above_o deliver_v proposition_n that_o this_o coldness_n ascribe_v to_o the_o second_o region_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v to_o be_v

gather_v from_o this_o that_o i_o can_v never_o hear_v of_o any_o ice_n meet_v with_o there_o at_o any_o time_n of_o the_o year_n though_o snow_n or_o hail_n may_v be_v produce_v in_o the_o middle_a

far_o enough_o into_o this_o region_n that_o they_o find_v the_o cold_a any_o where_o very_o great_a or_o that_o in_o some_o place_n they_o have_v find_v it_o at_o all_o considerable_a as_o we_o shall_v see_v in_o the_o explication_n of_o the_o next_o proposition_n i_o know_v not_o whether_o it_o will_v much_o strengthen_v what_o have_v be_v say_v if_o i_o add_v that_o i_o learn_v by_o inquiry_n of_o such_o person_n as_o i_o late_o mention_v that_o at_o the_o mouth_n of_o deep_a grooves_n in_o mine_n the_o steam_n that_o ascend_v do_v often_o feel_v warm_a though_o the_o outward_a air_n where_o the_o observation_n be_v make_v be_v affect_v with_o the_o heat_n of_o summer_n but_o though_o this_o probable_o argue_v that_o if_o the_o middle_a region_n of_o the_o earth_n through_o which_o these_o steam_n must_v ascend_v be_v very_o intense_o cold_a they_o will_v be_v so_o refrigerated_a in_o their_o passage_n as_o to_o feel_v rather_o cold_a than_o hot_a at_o their_o appear_v
